The first person in the class was Dale Noffsinger, the president. He is water boy for the Harlem Globetrotters at the present time. Next she saw the vice- president Donn Calloway. He now gives Toni Home Permanents to redheads. Next into the crystal ball came Ruth Ann Klefll the secretary ot the class who is now replacing Shultz on the Bob Cummings show. As she disappeared from view, the crystal ball started to rock and roll be- cause here came Larry Holeton who has replaced Elvis Presley as the heart throb of the old maids of America. Next she saw a green thumb, it must be that Julia Davis who owns a greenhouse in Walla Walla. The Mad Magazine editor now comes into view. It must be the one and only Ralph Bauer. The next picture became clearer and clearer when Linda Pitsenbarger appeared. She has finally reached the rank of president of the Mt. Iefferson Baby Sitters Agency, Inc. Now comes Mr. Winston Hulme, Esq. the youngest ambassador to England in the U. S. History. Then from the foggy mist of the crystal ball came Georgene Gaier rolling in with the tide who is a den mother for the U. S. Navy. Waddling into the crystal ball appeared Sam Stephenson, the private investigator for the F.B.I. iFat Boys Institute.J Prom the depths of the crystal ball appeared Alice Wise, who runs the eatem-up charm school, for un- charming cannibales on the banks of the Amazon. She heard a bang, crash and out of the cloud of dust appeared Henry Jones and his crumbled hot rod, who is president of the Smoothers of Lockington. Shs-s-s . She hears a wail of a police siren. Helen Deeter was caught but not held for long, because she is the editor of Drag Magg and she was just trying out her ideas. Suddenly a cloud of dust arose. Galloping into view was Harold Langston formerly known as Horse who was recently named bookie of the year. Singing voices of six little girls arose, the leader looks very familiar, it was Cora Mae Huston. Because of her six children she won the musical award of the year. Mademoiselle was getting a haze over her eyes as she began to read the book that won the award as best seller of the year The Art of Staying a Bachelor written by Iim Bashore. Because of the landing of Sputnik the crystal ball was jarred to the floor and broken. That of course, ended Iudy's career of fortunetelling. She now runs a home for retired soldiers. - --------- Ruth Ann Kiehl, Harold Langston, Georgene Gaier, Winston Hulme
